you need to learn what you are doing.
L;earn an area like the back of your hand, inspect every prperty that comes up in the area that you wish to trade for both sale and rental. Ity does take time to learn and understand what you are doing.

It may depend on where you are from. However you need to check with the foreign investment review board. Normally a foreign nation can buy an off the plan property but not an established home.

Hi Defred

No the comment was not directed at you. However it is important to know who you are dealing with. I often buy properties for clients internationally, but insist that they are involved in the process. If you are looking in Brisbane I have contacts there that might be able to give you some advice.

As I have said on a number of occasions, if you are serious about investing then you need to do you own research. I know nothing about this company they seem to be another marketing company. Groups that offer long rental guarentees normally have it built into the price.
The fact that you are posting on this forum asking questions about the company…[Read more]

I think that if you buy good property in main cities in the long term you will do well. I agree with Western that small towns in New Zealand and Australia are not a good option. Sure people made money out of properties in small towns however in many cases these properties are now overpriced. In any boom once prices rise dramatically in the centre…[Read more]

This is why I am no longer buying i Australia.
In Texas you can get 8-12% returns in a strong growth market. Be sheep and follow everyone else in Perth

If you look at car park prices they have not varied much since the last property boom in 1989. In terms of buying an entire car park, thats fine but the type of person attracted to thios type of investment are normally only looking for 1or 2 spaces to invest in. Banks would look at these as commercial investments and you would only get a 60-70%…[Read more]

A waste of time and money
At the end of each property cycle car parking becames a popular investment. What is the point of purchasing something that you loose money on and will not provide any capital growth.

If you buy a car in New Zealand, you have to keep it there for 12 months before you can bring it back to Australia. But if you bring it back within 12 months you will pay duty.

If I had a client who was looking long term and felt that America was too far then yes. You can still buy good property. As mentioned their are issues with property taxes and only being able to borrow around 70% needs to be considered.
Personally I am not buying in New Zealand at present and I will be focusing on Texas for the time being.…[Read more]

I also love New Zealand, however iam also investing in Texas as their are some great opportunities there. It is a little like New Zealand 3 years ago.

I agree with Westan

Morwell is overpriced and has to many rental properties.
In a three year period the values lifted by around 33%, that lifted the 10 average from 1-2%. Thats ok if you brought 5 years ago, but not today. The chances of capital growth in the medium term are remote. However positive cashflow with growth is very hard to findf in…[Read more]

It is all about the level of research and the contacts you make on the ground. Many people loose money because they are not careful. They do not do their research and in many cases they purchase blindly. I think there are great opportunities to make money and invest well overseas, but put the time in and resaerch it carefully.
